Staten Island Delegates Support Trump’s Nomination at NY Conservative Convention

On Saturday, August 17th, the New York State Conservative Party held its Presidential Nominating Convention. A Richmond County delegation, led by County Chairman David Mario Curcio, played a significant role in the event, where President Donald J. Trump was officially nominated as the Conservative Party’s candidate for the 2024 Presidential election. The nomination of J.D. Vance for Vice President and a slate of electors for the Trump-Vance ticket were also unanimously approved by the voting delegates.

Chairman Curcio emphasized the unwavering support of the Staten Island Conservative Party for President Trump, stating, “The Staten Island Conservative Party is proud to have been the first Conservative Party county organization in the state to formally endorse President Trump’s candidacy, and we have never wavered in our continued support for President Trump and the America First agenda.” He added, “We have every confidence that the greatest chapter in the ultimate art of the comeback Is about to be written.”

The Richmond County delegation was fully represented at the convention, with all state committee members either in attendance or represented by proxy. As a member of the state party’s executive committee, Curcio had the honor of making the official motion to authorize the nomination of President Trump as the Conservative Party’s candidate at the executive committee meeting, held after the convention. This motion, along with those for Vance and the slate of electors, was unanimously approved by the executive committee.

The significance of this nomination comes at a crucial time in American politics, with the 2024 Presidential election poised to be one of the most contentious in recent history.
